Education Strategic Plan 2024 

If you are thinking about training as a teacher in a Catholic school take a look at the materials on the website of the Scottish Catholic Education Service (SCES). Click here.

It gives advice about:

  • Completing your application form and preparing for the interview.
  • Work experience in a school.
  • The teaching courses that are available.
  • Information for career changers.
  • Reading and reflections for aspiring teachers.
  • A very detailed handbook giving information about teaching and preparing for your career in teaching.
  • Spiritual reflections about teaching as a vocation.
